BELGIUM VS FRANCE PREDICTION

Normally, these two sides would be considered fairly conservative, especially on big occasions. However, two of Belgium’s last three games have seen over 2.5 goals scored along with both teams finding the net. The same outcome has occurred in three of France’s most recent four competitive fixtures and with the need for victory high on both sides, an entertaining affair is expected here. Consider backing over 2.5 goals across 90 minutes.

BELGIUM VS FRANCE TIP: OVER 2.5 GOALS
